definitely not a fail mate! a friend worth more than any machine.

do believe the account's called 'moveduckstew', so that's what the funds can held do (I speak for myself of course)

the memories created with the bikes are my important than the bikes themselves!

Haven't been on the boards in months or to a bike night either. Had I known I would have pitched in...

Where's the original thread?

It could be a sub-plot to DMF: The Movie


Might even be the opening catalyst; sort of mission to get the bike back.

That's a great pic Stu! I hope things are going well for you out there and I can't wait to her about the reaction your daughter had when she finds out dad is there to stay!

There really isn't an 'official' back-story thread, but here are the cliffs-notes:

I decided last month to take a job somewhere out of SoCal and an opportunity became available in Albuquerque where my Daughter lives with my ex (so I could be closer to my Daughter who's fast approaching her teenage years).  To afford the move, both my HD Nightster and my green M900 had to go.  Bacon-Junkie (Ryan) knew how much I loved the green M900 and he also knew that I was selling it for the $.

So, he started an underground effort to raise the $ needed for me to keep the bike...  The effort itself wasn't enough to save the green M900....

So, I've moved to Albuquerque and have begun settling in here and adjusting to being currently without a running/riding bike.  There are some wonderful people here who either already have or are willing to loan me thier extra bikes and since I work at the Triumph/Ducati dealership...  Well, we do have loaners sometimes so it won't be a bad time until I get one of my projects going again.

The thought behind this effort of Ryan's could never, ever be classified as a FAIL even though it didn't achieve it's goal.  

Many thanks to everyone who helped with this effort and a HUGE thanks to Ryan for his thoughtfulness in this.

Love you fellow DMF'ers!!!

Miss having you around, buddy...

Glad you're settling in ok.

The peoples of the DMF are special indeed.  Most of us might not ever realize how great this forum, and the members of it, really are.    :)

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

Your on a mission, carry on.  I really enjoyed the latest creation.  The Dirt Tracker is B to the A!

I would like to feature it on our site...TheFastandDirty.com.....I think it fits, don't you?

Let's talk details.

P.S. - I have a slightly gray record and do not mind putting another smudge on it for a certain green monster in the upcoming DMF movie  8)
